Selemaia 15

1 Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “Kapau ʻe tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao ʻa Mōsese mo Samuela, ʻe ʻikai te u tokanga ki he kakai ni: kapusi ʻakinautolu ʻi hoku ʻao, pea tuku ke nau ʻalu atu.

And he said Yahweh to me if he will stand Moses and Samuel before me not soul my [will be] to the people this send [them] away from on face my so they may go out.

2 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻo kapau te nau lea kiate koe, Te mau ʻalu ki fē? pea te ke tala kiate kinautolu, ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova; Ko kinautolu, kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he mate, te nau mate; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku tuʻutuʻuni ki he heletā, te nau ʻi he heletā; pea ko kinautolu ʻoku tuʻutuʻuni ki he honge, te nau ʻi he honge; pea ko kinautolu kuo tuʻutuʻuni ki he fakapōpula, te nau ʻalu ki he fakapōpula.

And it will be that they will say to you where? will we go out and you will say to them thus he says Yahweh [those] who [are] for death to death and [those] who [are] for the sword to the sword and [those] who [are] for the famine to the famine and [those] who [are] for captivity to captivity.

3 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, Te u tuʻutuʻuni kiate kinautolu ʻae faʻahinga meʻa ʻe fā: ko e heletā ke tāmateʻi, ko e fanga kulī ke haehae, ko e manu ʻoe ʻatā, pea mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe fonua, ke folo hifo pea fakaʻauha.

And I will appoint over them four kinds [the] utterance of Yahweh the sword to kill and the dogs to drag away and [the] bird[s] of the heavens and [the] animal[s] of the earth to devour and to destroy.

4 Pea te u tukuange ʻakinautolu ke ʻave ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, koeʻuhi ko Manase ko e foha ʻo Hesekaia ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa naʻa ne fai ʻi Selūsalema.”

And I will make them (into a terror *Q(K)*) for all [the] kingdoms of the earth on account of Manasseh [the] son of Hezekiah [the] king of Judah on [that] which he did in Jerusalem.

5 “He ko hai ʻe ʻofa kiate koe, ʻE Selūsalema? Pe ko hai ʻe mamahi mo koe? Pe ko hai ʻe afe atu ke fehuʻi pe ʻoku ke fēfē?

For who? will he have compassion on you O Jerusalem and who? will he show sympathy to you and who? will he turn aside to ask to welfare of you.

6 ‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, kuo ke fakaholomui meiate au; ko ia te u mafao atu hoku nima kiate koe, mo fakaʻauha koe; kuo u fiu ʻi he kātaki.

You you abandoned me [the] utterance of Yahweh backwards you go and I have stretched out hand my on you and I have destroyed you I had wearied myself to relent.

7 Pea te u tapili ʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻae tapili ʻi he ngaahi matapā ʻoe fonua; te u toʻo ʻenau fānau, te u fakaʻauha ʻa hoku kakai, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau taʻetafoki mei honau ngaahi hala.

And I have winnowed them with a winnowing scoop in [the] gates of the land I have made childless I have destroyed people my from ways their not they have turned away.

8 Kuo fakatokolahi ʻi hoku ʻao honau kau fefine ʻoku mate honau husepāniti ʻo lahi hake ʻi he ʻoneʻone ʻoe ngaahi tahi: kuo u ʻomi ki heʻenau faʻē ha tokotaha ʻoku fakaʻauha ʻi he hoʻatā: kuo u pule kiate ia ke fai ia fakafokifā pe, ko e ngaahi fakailifia ki he kolo.

They are numerous to me (widows its *Q(K)*) more than [the] sand of [the] seas I have brought to them on a mother of a young man a destroyer at noon I have made fall on her suddenly anguish and sudden terror.

9 Pea kuo vaivai ia ʻaia kuo fāʻeleʻi ʻae toko fitu: kuo ne tuku hake hono laumālie; kuo tō hifo hono laʻā ʻi he kei ʻaho: kuo mā ia mo puputuʻu: pea ko kinautolu ʻoku toe te u tukuange ki he heletā ʻi he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili, ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova.”

She has grown feeble [one who] bore seven [children] it has panted breath her (it went *Q(K)*) sun her while still by day she is ashamed and she is abashed and remnant their to the sword I will give before enemies their [the] utterance of Yahweh.

10 ʻA ʻeku faʻē, ʻoku ou malaʻia, koeʻuhi kuo ke fāʻeleʻi au ko e tangata faʻa fekeʻikeʻi pea ko e tangata fakakikihi mo māmani kotoa pē! Pea ʻoku teʻeki ai te u nō ha meʻa ki he totongi, pea naʻe ʻikai nō kiate au ʻe ha tangata ki he totongi; ka ʻoku nau taki taha kapeʻi au.

Woe! to me O mother my that you gave birth to me a man of strife and a man of contention to all the land not I have lent and not people have lent to me all of him [are] cursing me.

11 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, Ko e moʻoni ʻe lelei hoʻo hako; te u pule ki he fili ke ne fai lelei kiate koe ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe kovi mo e mamahi.

He said Yahweh if not (I will set free you *Q(K)*) for good if not - I will cause to plead with you in a time evil and in a time of distress the enemy.

12 ‌ʻE fesiʻi ʻe he ukamea ʻae ukamea mei he tokelau, pea mo e sitili?

¿ Will it break iron - iron from [the] north and bronze.

13 “Pea te u foaki hoʻo meʻa mo hoʻo koloa ke vetea taʻehatotongi, ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo ngaahi angahala, ʻi he ngataʻanga kotoa pē ʻoe fonua.

Wealth your and treasures your to plunder I will give not for price and on all sins your and in all territories your.

14 Pea te u pule ke ke ʻalu mo ho ngaahi fili ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ke ʻiloa; he kuo tutu ʻae afi ʻi hoku houhau, ʻaia ʻe vela ai ʻakimoutolu.”

And I will make to pass enemies your in a land [which] not you have known for a fire it has been kindled in anger my towards you it will burn.

15 “ʻE Sihova ʻoku ke ʻafioʻi: manatuʻi au, pea ʻaʻahi kiate au, pea totongi kiate kinautolu kuo fakatangaʻi au; ʻoua naʻa ke ʻave au koeʻuhi ko hoʻo kātaki ʻofa: ke ke ʻafio kuo u kātaki ʻae manuki koeʻuhi ko koe.

You you know O Yahweh remember me and visit me and avenge yourself for me from [those who] harass me may not to [the] length of anger your you take away me know bearing my on you reproach.

16 Pea naʻe ʻiloa hoʻo ngaahi lea, pea ko ʻeku meʻakai ia; pea ko hoʻo folofola ko e fiemālie pea mo e fakafiefia ki hoku loto: he kuo ui au ʻi ho huafa, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau.

They were found words your and I ate them and it became (word your *Q(K)*) to me a joy and [the] delight of heart my for it is called name your on me O Yahweh [the] God of hosts.

17 Naʻe ʻikai te u nofo ʻi he fakataha ʻae kau manuki, pea naʻe ʻikai te u fiefia ka naʻaku nofo tokotaha pe koeʻuhi ko ho nima: he kuo ke fakapito ʻaki au ʻae tuputāmaki.”

Not I sat in [the] assembly of merry makers and I rejoiced because of hand your alone I sat for indignation you filled me.

18 “Ko e hā ʻoku pehē ai pe ʻeku mamahi, mo hoku lavea taʻefaʻafakamoʻui, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai fie moʻui? Te ke ʻiate au ʻo hangē ko e meʻa loi, pea ʻo hangē ko e vai kuo fakaʻaʻau ke maha?

Why? is it pain my perpetuity and wound my incurable it has refused to be healed certainly you are to me like a deceitful thing waters [which] not they are reliable.

19 Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, kapau te ke tafoki, te u toe ʻomi koe, pea te ke tuʻu ʻi hoku ʻao: pea kapau te ke vaheʻi ʻae lelei mei he kovi, te ke hoko ʻo hangē ko hoku fofonga; tuku ke tafoki ʻakinautolu kiate koe kaeʻoua naʻa ke tafoki koe kiate kinautolu.

Therefore thus he says Yahweh if you will return and I will restore you before me you will stand and if you will bring forth [the] precious from [the] worthless like mouth my you will be they will return they to you and you not you must return to them.

20 Pea ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, te u ngaohi koe ki he kakai ni ke ke hangē ko e ʻa palasa: pea te nau tauʻi koe, ka ʻe ʻikai te nau lavaʻi koe: he ʻoku ou ʻiate koe ke fakamoʻui koe, pea ke fakahaofi koe.

And I will make you for the people this into a wall of bronze fortified and people will fight against you and not they will prevail to you for [will be] with you I to save you and to deliver you [the] utterance of Yahweh.

21 Pea te u fakahaofi koe mei he nima ʻoe angahala, pea te u huhuʻi koe mei he nima ʻoe mālohi.”

And I will deliver you from [the] hand of wicked [people] and I will ransom you from [the] hand of ruthless [people].
